There is no difference in the numbers of gays in 1 country vs; another. It`s just swept under the rug in Middle Ease & parts of Asia because of cultural feelings about homosexuality

Its religion; In the middle east if your gay It`s better for that person to hide himself he will be considered an outcast, because in this region no choice is allowed, because Islam forbids sodomy. which it works good in this region

I don`t think they are more noticed, or more of them, but(!) they are more able to be openly gay in the areas you name, so you see more gay people & behavior. There are probably not fewer gays in Middle East & Asia, but(!) they are hidden

`Gay` is defined differently in different cultures; In many Asian & African cultures, for instance, a man having sex with a man doesn`t count as `gay` unless the man is `receiving` partner; & in Europe & Americas there is a `gay` culture, whereas that is not really the case to the same degree in Asia or Africa. That doesn`t mean there are fewer people who experience same-sex desire, however; it just means that they are not as visible

Probably because in many parts of the world, being gay gets you killed;

If your option was `coming out` or death, which would you choose?

It might have something to do with sodomy laws.

Because being noticeable in Middle East, Africa & Asia could mean death. & I have encountered so many blacks, arabs & asians who are gay that you are without doubt wrong. but(!) they are SO closeted; Next question?
